Back Trap System

Why getting hooks is not required for good back control. Attack just as effectively without hooks — from the top, never on bottom taking their weight, with no risk of being reversed.

Forget putting in hooks

Stay on top

No more getting stuck on bottom carrying your opponent's weight while you fish for hooks.

No reversals

Control from a pinning top position — there's nothing to roll or buck you off of.

Finish anyway

Rear naked choke, Kimura Trap, short choke, armbars — all available without a single hook.

Who it's for

MMA fighters and grapplers who want a back-control system that doesn't depend on hooks, self-defense practitioners who need to disengage safely, and anyone who keeps losing the back against turtle specialists. White belt to black belt — no flexibility required.
